WILDLIFE

 

The protection and sustainable use of wildlife is mandated under the international conventions that Egypt has signed including CBD (Conventions of Biological Diversity), CITES,  CMS (Convention of Migratory Species)  and AEWA (African Water Association).  Unless greater efforts are taken to regulate hunting and protect important habitats much of Egypt’s wildlife will disappear in the next twenty years!
